I have had a red spot on my right wrist for years, which turned itchy and then dark brown from scratching. For the past three years, it has developed into a sore. The sore is dry and located on the inside of my right wrist, with another similar sore nearby. I also have dry, sore areas on my head that have been present for four years. I have high blood pressure and recently had elevated BUN levels in my blood work. I have seen a dermatologist who prescribed antibiotics and cortisone cream, but they did not help. What could be causing these persistent sores, and what should I do next?

I am on day 35 of missing my cycle. I typically cycle every 20-25 days and it lasts for 3 days. I have taken a pregnancy test and it was negative. I have been experiencing fatigue and achy joints from the waist down. I don't have any pregnancy symptoms. I just don't feel well at all...very sickly. What could be causing this and what should I do?

I have been dealing with anxiety disorder for many years, with symptoms including hot flashes, loss of appetite, and occasional nausea. Recently, I've had multiple episodes in the past three months, each lasting one to two weeks. My doctor ran tests including a CBC, thyroid level check, and testosterone level, which showed a low testosterone level. I was prescribed testosterone cream, but I'm still experiencing symptoms. Why does it keep coming back, and should I trust my doctor's diagnosis and treatment plan?

I took a dose of Haldol and now I'm experiencing involuntary leg movements and leg cramps. Is that the cause, and how long will these side effects last?

I am 1 year post-pregnancy and have a 4-finger width diastasis. How can I fix this using an abdominal binder and transverse abdominal muscle exercises? Is it too late for non-surgical methods?

Woke up feeling dizzy. I'm 45 years old, not a smoker or drinker, and not into drugs. I felt like the world was moving, had no fever, no history of heart disease or high blood pressure, and have a very athletic job delivering mail. I've been in the heat for weeks but hydrate well. This morning, I got sick and threw up a couple of times. I've been feeling like the room is moving for 11 hours now. Do I have a bug or should I worry about something else?
